The Idolator Hype Index (Week Of 2.5.12)
Fri Feb 10 2012 by Idolator Staff
A few months (or weeks) from now, you may not remember who won the Super Bowl. But we bet you'll remember who performed at halftime, and that's just one reason why she dominates the latest Pop & Fizz chart. We've tallied the ups and downs of M.I.A., Lana Del Rey, Missy Elliott and the rest of this week's news-making pop artists, and you'll find the results below. (Remember, we study each artist or major news story according to their size (that’s Rank) and then we weigh how they’re faring overall in the pop zeitgeist (that’s Hype). Who do you think will top the chart following the Grammy Awards? Hmmm...

Brandy And Monica Team Up For New Single “It All Belongs To Me”
Mon Feb 6 2012 by Becky Bain
After fighting over a man in their hit single "The Boy Is Mine" fourteen years ago, Brandy and Monica have matured and called a truce. Their new collaboration, the snappy R&B tune "It All Belongs To Me", is a sequel of sorts to their 1998 song, with both singers agreeing that their man "must be blind, you must be dumb, you must be trippin', you must be crazy to know that I would let you off that easy." Nice to see these two ladies finally getting along! More »

Tue Jan 17 2012 by Robbie Daw
And here you thought Paris Hilton and LMFAO were the only classy pop pair-up with new music on the horizon! When word came last week that Brandy and Monica hit a studio together with Rico Love, naturally our eyebrows arched and we played "The Boy Is Mine" 37 times in one sitting. Now Billboard reports that the ladies' joint single is called "It All Belongs To Me" (wait — which one is "me"?), and it will be released on February 6. The tune will appear on both Monica's sixth album New Life (out March 6) and Brandy's next LP (also out in March).

Tue Jan 10 2012 by Erika Brooks Adickman
Brandy stopped by The Wendy Williams Show yesterday to chat about joining season 5 of BET’s The Game, her upcoming album, reuniting with Monica and to dish about a new man in her life. Of course the daytime host wasn’t going to let the Dancing With The Stars diva off her set without attempting to stir the pot regarding Brandy’s Marriage Counselor co-star Kim Kardashian. But instead, the R&B songstress delivered this message to Kim, “I love you and I’m here whenever you need me.” Catch Ms. Norwood as she exits the NYC studio (in the dead of winter) in sassy little shorts.

Lil Kim Gets The Boot From Biggie’s Mom On A New Monica Track
Fri Jul 15 2011 by Idolator Staff
Who's a big fan of Lil Kim? Monica. Who's not? Biggie's mom, Voletta Wallace. That's what we've taken away from the controversy over the "Love All Over Me" singer's new single "Anything (To Find You)," which Lil Kim has already laid down her vocals for and Monica is happy with, but now may not be released as is. The Missy Elliot-produced track samples Notorious B.I.G.'s "Who Shot Ya," and since his mother now controls the late rapper's estate, she gets the final say on who appears on the cut — and it appears she's playing for Team Minaj. Find out more below.
